Botcon 2009 was tons of fun! 

Great to meet so many fans of Lil Formers and also make some new ones! The animated prints when over very well, especially with the kids, and I did a ton of sketches over the 3 days.

I spent much of the show hanging with my fellow Canadian in the TFcon crew. Us canucks need to stick together down here in SoCal. Also got to meet several TF artists for the first time, and many of the folk over at IDW. Stan Bush & Vince Dicola sems to really enjoy my renditions of them on the Botcon signing card, and hero of my youth Weird Al came through the artists alley during setup time. Woot!

Big thanks to Pete Sinclair from Fun Publications for hooking me up with my table, thanks man!

Now some pics!

Here’s my set up at the show, along with my table-neighbor Alex Milne and booth-girl extraordinaire Michelle. Also check out the signing card I did up for the Botcon crew to sell as an exclusive (includes all the voice and musical guests)
  

Steve from Australia, who got Michael Bay to sign his homemade Lil Formers shirt at the Austrlian premiere of the first TF film. Also some fans who showed up in Lil Formers shirts!
  

A few of the many folks who dropped by with some of SuzyWong’s plushbots! (should’ve brought my Soundwave!)
  

I got a set of Copic markers for my birthday last week, so I tried my hand at my first ever color sketches! They were a big hit and most everyone wants colour now. Here are a few I remembered to take pictures of:
         

My haul from the show: Masterpiece Grimlock, and some TMNT 25th anniversary re-release figs!

 Now I need a nap before E3 next week. See you all at Botcon 2010!

Hey guys!

Now availabe, some cool new Lil Formers shirts! I’ve just added a Lil Fallen for all you movie sequel peeps, as well as group Good Guys & Bad Bots shirts witha  spiffy Lil Formers logo on each.

Also trying something new with this Playbot shirt, calling all the way back to LF strip #3. If popular I think I’ll try my hand about more shirts like this, with a little design to them rather than just my art on shirts. Let me know what you think TF fans!

Anyways, check them all out along with past shirts in the Lil Formers T-shirt Store

Well, I’m headed back to Los Angeles this week for Anime Expo, July 2-5 at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Officially I’ll be there with UDON, and we’re set up as part of the Crunchyroll pavillion. Just look for the big UDON logos on the table! I’ll probably more be selling books more than drawing, but I’m up for more color sketches if anyone wants some!

Oh and we’re also premiering the Darkstalkers Tribute book at the show, which I have a piece in!(see it below). I also happen to do the layout otn eh book as I do for most of UDON’s art books. Other UDON artists from the book that will be at our booth are Omar Dogan and Long Vo. Also our good friend Yasuhiro Nightow(creator of Trigun, and a nice guy!) will be at the show as a guest of honor, and he also has a piece in the Tribute book.

I hope to see a lot of you there!
